The need is IDENTITY first and foremost.
Is that signaling identity, or media identity, or both?
Is either useful alone?
I'm thinking that a lot of people are demanding signaling identity
without media identity, and haven't really thought about the
consequences of that decision because they grew up with a telephone
system that essentially lacks the distinction.
From an end user perspective, I would assert that the most important
thing is probably the media. If the callerID says, "this is bob", what
is important to the user, is that when I pick up the phone and start
talking, it will be Bob who hears me, and Bob that I hear.
Consider this litmus test:
If the signaling actually came from Mary (perhaps as a third party), but
the media goes/comes to/from Bob, who should appear on the caller ID? I
say - Bob.
There is a timing aspect in favor of placing identity in signaling --
I would like to know whose call is ringing before I answer (if I do).
